The Lamp

Mary Cassatt, 1890–1891

The image depicts a woman seated, with her upper body turned slightly away from the viewer. She has short brown hair, a prominent nose, and slightly pursed lips. She is wearing a pale yellow sleeveless dress and holding a fan in her left hand. A dark green table in front of her holds a pink decorative container, papers, a cup, and a saucer. In the background, there is a large blue lamp with a pink shade, and the wall behind her has a horizontal line detail design.
